Application


  • Polysaccharide-Based Edible Biopolymer-Based Coatings for Fruit Preservation: A Review.: This review discusses the use of pectin from apples as a component of biopolymer coatings to extend the shelf life of fruits (Pillai et al., 2024).

  • Blueberry Anthocyanin Based Active Intelligent Wheat Gluten Protein Films: Preparation, Characterization, and Applications for Shrimp Freshness Monitoring.: Although this study focuses on blueberry anthocyanins, it provides insight into the use of pectin-based films for food preservation (Hu et al., 2024).

Laifeng Lu et al.
Food chemistry, 337, 127992-127992 (2020-09-14)
Mechanical wounding causes significant economic losses of fresh produce due to accelerated senescence and spoilage as well as loss of nutritional value. Here, pre-application of oligogalacturonides (OGs) enzymatically hydrolyzed from apple pectin effectively reduced the healing times of mechanical wounds

Pectin is abundant in modern day diets, as it comprises the middle lamellae and one-third of the dry carbohydrate weight of fruit and vegetable cell walls. Currently there is no specialized model organism for studying pectin fermentation in the human

Basidiomycetes populate a wide range of ecological niches but unlike ascomycetes, their capabilities to decay plant polymers and their potential for biotechnological approaches receive less attention. Particularly, identification and isolation of CAZymes is of biotechnological relevance and has the potential

Green leafy vegetables have low β-carotene bioavailability, which we hypothesized to be, at least in part, due to high contents of fiber, minerals, and phenolics. We investigated the effects of pectin (40-120 μg/mL), iron (50-150 μg/mL), ferulic acid (30-90 μg/mL)
